This car seat is the best infant car seat I’ve ever had. The biggest plus has to be the automatic strap and headrest adjuster, being safety conscious this is fantastic. The extended life for this seat is also a huge plus. The padding is fantastic for both newborn and non newborn phase. The tilt is great no floppy head while in the car. The integrated sun shade is just another example of a superior Mumof5 · argos.co.uk

I was sent this carseat complementary from bzz agent to try and review. I have to say that I love it! It's so lightweight and all the extra padding for newborns is the perfect touch. It hugs my little one and she looks so comfortable. Not to mention puts me at ease that she is safe and secure. The adjustable base allows for the perfect position that I have never been able to get with any other car Nikky · shop.doreljuvenile.com
